The other option is to take a statistical approach.  After all, what you
want to do is optimize average response times across all your user's
databases, not optimize for a few specific queries.

So one thought would be to add in pg_stat_statements to your platform
... something I'd like to see Heroku do anyway.  Then you can sample
this across dozens (or hundreds) of user databases, each with RPC set to
a slightly different level, and aggregate it into a heat map.

That's the way I'd do it, anyway.
